Question
10 intermediates in the glycolysis pathway feed into additional pathways that make amino acids and complex carbohydrates. these latter pathways are
2 points
multiple choice
biosynthetic and endergonic
hydrolytic and endergonic
biosynthetic and exergonic
hydrolytic and exergonic
Pathways that make amino - acids and complex carbohydrates are biosynthetic as they involve synthesis of new molecules. These processes require energy input, so they are endergonic. Hydrolytic reactions involve breaking down molecules, which is not the case here. Exergonic reactions release energy, which is also not applicable as synthesis of complex molecules like amino - acids and carbohydrates requires energy.
